‘Let Me Tell You,’ with David McCann

| Readers 50

YouTube video

It was a local treasure and we all miss it. The If You Ask Me segment that ran on BBC Hearts and Minds for 16 years. It’s never coming back and many would say it’s best to leave it that way. Well David McCann and I have decided to run our own little experiment, paying homage and borrowing in good measure from the original If You Ask Me to bring you back some of that Thursday night magic with the mix of audio, illustrated idiom, visual satire and cutting commentary that we all miss.

Hope you enjoy and any feedback, suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. Video in full here.
